automatically managed and enabling reverse DNS lookup so that device names,
instead of IP addresses, appear in WLSE displays.
Your login determines whether you can use this option.
Procedure

Discovery Options window appears.
To enable automatic management for all discovered devices, select the
Auto-Manage Devices checkbox.
All discovered devices will be automatically placed in the Managed folder.

Auto Update), new access points and bridges added to the network will
be automatically configured if Auto-Manage is enabled. For more
information, see
